Moylans Hopsickle Imperial India Pale Ale

Bomber. Pours a hazy amber with a 2 finger off-white head. Nose pine resin and sour citrus. Palate – man, I think this is the hoppiest beer I’ve had to date. Hit you over the head intense pine hops and sour yellow grapefruit. Not much malt detected – it’s starting to give me a bit of heartburn it’s so hoppy – but I like it! Long lingering bitter finish. Medium body with splotchy lacing. It’s pretty unbalanced, but it certianly lives up to its name. A very intense IIPA.

2008-04-11. Amber body with a modest white head. Nice hoppy aroma, lightly woody,resiny notes. Flavour is pretty bitter, good amount of resiny hops are a touch astringent in the finish. Palate is a touch more full bodied than average. (3+) Decent beer but I was looking for a lot more complexity to the hops, perhaps its just a touch past its prime? Bottle shared by DuctTape.

Bottle. Pours amber with thick white head that dissipates to thinly laced. Very hoppy. All hops on the tongue. An ode to the hop.

Pours orange/amber with thick off white head. Huge hop aroma as soon as the top was popped. Big piney nose that is extremely inviting. Taste is all hops with nice citrus and grassy flavor. A hopheads dream. Excellent brew!!

bomber from grape & gourmet. pours a very nice golden amber with a good 1/2 inch head that lasted well. a very eye-pleasing beer actually. Aroma was stellar lead by fresh simcoe and cascade hops with hints of tulip, pineapple, and orange. flavor was a great contrast to the aroma with a huge hit of bitter hops without the sweetness that sometimes go along with IIPA’s. Very dry hop bite lingers on the toungue for a good long time. Mouthfeel is very smooth for 9.2%. Really a great beer aimed directly at true hop-heads.

Pours a beautiful copper color with white head with good lacing. Big ass aroma of spicy, spicy hops. Flavor it right on the money. Great malt balance to go with the huge hop flavor. I get the spicy flavor and it just keeps coming. Lingers on and on. Chewy texture and slight alcohol on the finish with those hops still lingering. Beautiful beer.

A very hoppy as they put it "celebration in hops." I liked this beer but I thought it could have used a little more of the sweet citrus factor instead of just the hops bitterness, that could have really put that over the top. Still very good.

A hopheads dream. An aroma of pure hops and then an onslaught of hop flavor for the tounge. The aftertaste is a little bitter but for a 9% abv beer it is very smooth. This beer is not for everyone but if you love hops this is a great one.
